Yaaaay Christmas Nails! I love Christmas. I love the corny songs, getting the same presents every year, even the Christmas junk that I used to hate when I was little and now would love as a Christmas present.
These are my favorite nails yet! They look like wrapping paper. Sooooo cutie. I hope they last a LONG time because I'm not gonna wanna get rid of them anytime soon. The idea is thanks to a youtube tutorial and a suggestion from my sister to put snowflakes on red instead of blue. The snowflakes and larger white dots (snowballs) are stickers, the little white flecks are painted on with white nail polish.
Note to self: I need green nail polish. I don't have any green!
What I Used:
- Base Coat: Avon Nail Experts Smooth Beginnings: Base Coat --1 coat? I can't remember if I did a second.
- Red: Wet n Wild Rock Solid Nail Lacquer: #227 "Rockin in Rubies" -- 2 coats plus touch-ups
- White specks: OPI Nail Lacquer: "Alpine Snow" -- applied with a #306 Winning Nails by WorldWide Nail Art brush
- Stickers: Professional Nail Sticker, Sinyemei Nagel-Kunst from eBay.
- Top Coat: Avon Nail Experts UV Gloss Guard: Top Coat -- 2 coats
- Drying Agent: Drip Dry by OPI -- 2 drops on each nail
My left hand is INCREDIBLE shaky right when it matters, when the brush has white polish on it and it's about to touch my right hand fingernail. I'm steady up until 1 cm away and then BAM shaky shaky shaky. It's kind of nerve-wracking, actually.
